dankmemes | Test Drive Meme #29

Welcome to Hadriel's test drive, and thank you again for your interest in the game! As always, our reserves page is here, and our applications page is here! Reserves open February 21st, and apps are open March 1st. Please remember that there is an app cap of 20 apps.

Two quick points here as well:
1. Any thread made in Hadriel's test drive will be accepted as the sole Action Log sample in the application.
2. All threads made in the test drive can be considered game canon, either through handwaving or through a shared mental experience while coming through the Door!

Test drives will be broken up into specific god mini-events, during which your characters can see how well they fare under the watchful eye of one of the gods. Choose wisely or just simply pick 'em all, and have fun!

SCENARIO ONE: FRACTURED FUTURE?
[The Door brings in all that is chaotic and evil in the world. This may include you, may include the person next to you... and may include the monster behind you.

This time, the Door has decided to bring in some monsters who already have a taste of what it's like to win their war. Welcome to the Risen, from the Fire Emblem franchise!

Risen are reanimated corpses, dedicated to obeying their master's will. While they have some form of sentience, they cannot be dissuaded from their goal and attack all who oppose them with a singleminded desire to execute their purpose, which unfortunately for you is "killing indiscriminately". Still, they're not all bad and some of them may even be relieved to finally be put to death. Have fun!]

SCENARIO TWO: ONLY THE GOOD STUFF
[Tranquility has decided to take over Hope's food supply regimen and- well, if anyone thought he was a self righteous hipster before, this is probably what's going to seal the deal. All the food provided in the shops is now extremely vegan-only, from basic lettuce to the most bland fruit you can stand to look at.

None of it even tastes like anything, either- it's all like you're eating water. Maybe to Tranquility, this is a feast, but for you, it's difficult to register that you're even full. Better start prepping those salt mines- it's gonna be a long month.]

R A G E

SCENARIO THREE: YANDERE LIFE
[Unfortunately for you, you came at a time when Rage was very unhappy with everyone- and now you get to suffer for it. Is there anyone who catches your eye? Anyone who you might want to get to know a little better? Well, you're about to get to know them a lot better, because now you're obsessed with them.

It's not the innocent kind of obsession, either- this is a full speed ahead, breakdown, pull out the knives and rope kind of obsession, where your desire to be near someone is synonymous with stalking, being a creep, and overall just not really anything remotely approaching healthy.

Better look out and hope that nobody gets a crush on you either.

This is a mini version of our Kiss me Kill me event this month.]

"Ha! If it did that would be the most-"

She turns her head towards the voice, and stops abruptly mid sentence, her eyes wide in surprise and recognition. And then she's moving towards the elven lady, the cabbage being very unceremoniously dropped to the ground, so she can pull the other into a hug.

"Aerie! You're here?"

It's a brief thing. She's too happy to see a familiar face than to linger. When she pulls back, her hands stay on Aerie's shoulders, as she gives her friend a looking over, as if it's hard to believe she's not an illusion.

"You're all right, yes? You look all right. When did you get here?"

"Oh!" Hugs, then. That's alright, she doesn't mind hugs. Just...they're a little odd coming from a stranger. Who knows who she is, apparently. She tentatively returns the hug for a moment before stepping back, but she's still there, being held by her shoulders.

"Yes, it looks like I am here." Her expression is confused, but she's still trying to be polite and keep smiling, even if it's a little bemused.

"Hmm...I'm not really sure. I was just here all of a sudden. Like I stepped through a door."

She doesn't hold on overly long, just enough to clearly tell that her friend is all in one piece, then she lets them fall away. But her smile stays right where it is, very pleased to see a familiar face, in spite of everything.

"Very like." She sobers a little, then. Aerie looks just a bit puzzled. She's masking it well, but Syeira has seen looks like that on her face before. "It was just after finishing with Irenicus. I originally thought I'd been dragged to another part of the Nine Hells. Aside from the food, I'm clearly wrong."

She smiles again, trying for levity.

Well alright then. She really couldn't say whether that was better or not--it felt like she should probably know the woman but...she just didn't. And the whole situation was just on the wrong side of awkward.

She can't hide the surprise on her face at the mention of Irenicus, though she tries. What is she supposed to think about that?

"M-maybe it is. How would you know if it wasn't?"

"That's...a really good point. I guess because Bhaal's realm was just a lot less hospitable."

Syeira is not dense. She can see something is going on in Aerie's head, and whatever it is, is confusing. Not one to shy away from such things, she just asks. Aerie is her friend, and if something's the matter, she wants to help.

"Is something wrong?"

"Well that is true..." This place was already much nicer. Not as nice as it could have been, but certainly better than some places she'd been.

"Oh, I'm just very confused." That was a nice way of putting it. "I don't think I know who you are, but you seem to know me and I just feel guilty that I can't remember..."
